Description

The present disclosure relates to compositions such as particles and consumer products containing such particles, as well as manufacturing and use processes for such particles and compositions containing such particles.

Beneficial agents such as fragrances, silicones, waxes, flavors, vitamins, and fabric softeners are used in high concentrations in consumer products such as personal care compositions, cleaning compositions, and fabric care compositions. It is expensive and / or generally less effective. As a result, it is desirable to maximize the efficiency of such beneficial agents. One way to achieve this goal is to improve the delivery efficiency of such beneficial agents. Unfortunately, the delivery efficiency of beneficial agents, as such agents may impair their physical or chemical properties or may be incompatible with other compositional components or sites to be treated. Is difficult to increase. One way to improve the delivery efficiency of beneficial agents is to encapsulate such beneficial agents. While such attempts can improve the delivery efficiency of the beneficial agent, the encapsulated beneficial agent may be mechanical or chemical, such as, for example, cleaning and / or rinsing fluid action and / or charge interaction. Further improvements in delivery efficiency are desired, as they may be lost before or after application to the site of interest due to factors such as target interactions. In certain applications, the adhesiveness of the encapsulated beneficial agent is improved by coating the encapsulated beneficial agent with an adhesion aid, which is typically a polymer. Unfortunately, the cationically charged species used to improve the adhesion of such encapsulations to fabrics result in visible masses in consumer products and / or the adhesion of perfume to treated surfaces. Causes an increase in the level of encapsulation aggregation that can be non-uniform. Therefore, there is a need for capsules with high capsule integrity and low aggregation tendency.

Without being bound by theory, Applicants have found that the problem of agglomeration is that when the encapsulation is coated with an adhesion aid, the uncoated encapsulation is due to van der Worlds forces and cross-linking agglomeration. I think it is due to the attraction. Therefore, the applicants recognized that the main cause of the agglomeration problem was the slurry production process. If such a problem is solved, the influence of the remaining agglomerates can be managed.

In this application, Applicants disclose encapsulated beneficial agents, and certain classes of amine-containing polymers, which, in combination, combine to provide a plurality of different surfaces (eg, hair, skin, and cotton, etc.). It provides a high level of uniform adhesion properties to high surface cotton, cotton blends, and various fabrics such as polyester).

The present disclosure relates to compositions such as particles and consumer products containing such particles, as well as manufacturing and use processes for such particles and compositions containing such particles.

Test method (1) Extraction of beneficial agent delivery particles from the final product:
Unless otherwise specified herein, the method of isolating beneficial agent delivery particles is based on the fact that the density of most of such particles differs from the density of water. .. The final product is mixed with water to dilute and / or release the particles. Centrifuge the diluted product suspension to accelerate particle separation. Such particles tend to float or sink in the dilution / dispersion of the final product. Using a pipette or spatula, the top and bottom layers of this suspension are removed and further subjected to dilution and centrifugation processes to separate and enrich the particles. Particles are observed in the range of 100x to at least 400x magnification using a cross-polarization filter or an optical microscope equipped with differential interference contrast (DIC). Microscopic observation provides an initial indicator of the presence, size, and aggregation of delivery particles.

To extract delivery particles from the liquid fabric toughening final product, perform the following steps:
1. 1. Approximately 20 mL of three aliquots of liquid fabric enhancer are individually injected into three 50 mL centrifuges and each with aliquot: deionized water = 1: 1 (eg, 20 mL fabric fortifier + 20 mL deionized water). Dilute, mix well with each aliquot, and centrifuge each aliquot for 30 minutes at about 10,000 xg.
2. 2. After centrifugation in step 1, the bottom aqueous layer (about 10 mL) in the 50 mL centrifuge tube is discarded, then 10 mL deionized water is added to each 50 mL centrifuge tube.
3. 3. In each aliquot, the process of centrifugation is repeated to remove the bottom aqueous layer, after which 10 mL of deionized water is added twice more to the 50 mL centrifuge tube.
4. Remove the upper layer with a spatula or pipette, and 5. This upper layer is transferred to a 1.8 mL centrifuge tube and centrifuged at about 20000 xg for 5 minutes.
6. Remove the top layer with a spatula or pipette, transfer to a new 1.8 mL centrifuge tube, add deionized water until the tube is completely filled, and then centrifuge at about 20000 xg for 5 minutes.
7. Remove the bottom layer with a spatula or pipette, add deionized water until the tube is completely filled, and centrifuge at about 20000 xg for 5 minutes.
8. Step 7 is repeated 5 more times (6 times in total).

When both the upper layer and the bottom layer of the enriched particles appear in the above-mentioned step 1, the process immediately proceeds to step 3 (that is, step 2 is omitted), and the process proceeds to steps 4 to 8. When these steps are complete, the bottom layer is removed from the 50 mL centrifuge tube of Step 1 using a spatula and / or pipette. The bottom layer is transferred to a 1.8 mL centrifuge tube and centrifuged at about 20000 xg for 5 minutes. The bottom layer is removed from the new tube, deionized water is added until the tube is completely filled, and then centrifuged for 5 minutes at about 20000 xg. Remove the upper layer (water) and add deionized water again until the tube is completely filled. This is repeated 5 more times (6 times in total). The upper and bottom layers, where the particles have been enriched and isolated, are miscible together again.

If the fabric toughening agent is white or indistinguishable from the particle-rich layer, add 4 drops of dye (Spartanburg, South Carolina, USA) Liquid JH (5% premixed), etc.) Is added to the centrifuge tube of step 1 and isolation proceeds as described.

To extract delivery particles from a solid final product that disperses easily in water, 1 L of deionized water and 20 g of final product (eg, foam detergent forms, films, gels and granules, or water-soluble polymers, flake soaps) And other matrices that are already water-soluble, such as bar soap and salt, sugar, mud, and starch). When extracting particles from final products that are not easily dispersed in water, such as waxes, dryer sheets, dryer bars, and greasy substances, detergent is added to the product and diluent to release the particles from the matrix. It may be necessary to stir and / or heat gently. The use of organic solvents and drying of the particles should be avoided as these operations can damage the delivery particles during this step.

20 mL final product to extract delivery particles from liquid final products that are not fabric softeners or fabric strengtheners (eg, liquid laundry detergents, liquid dishwashing detergents), liquid hand wash soaps, lotions, shampoos, conditioners, and hair dyes. And 20 mL of deionized water.
If desired, NaCl (eg, 100-200 g of NaCl) can be added to the diluted suspension to increase the density of the solution and facilitate the floating of the particles in the upper layers. If the product is white and indistinguishable from the particle layer formed during centrifugation, a water-soluble dye can be added to the diluent for visual contrast.

The mixture of water and product is subjected to a subsequent centrifugation process involving removal of the top and bottom layers, these layers are resuspended with fresh diluent, and further centrifugation, isolation, and resuspension. Do. Each process of centrifugation is carried out in a tube with a volume of 1.5 to 50 mL for 5 to 30 minutes with a centrifugal force of up to 20,000 xg. At least 6 centrifugation processes are typically required to extract and wash enough particles to test. For example, the first process of centrifugation is carried out in a 50 mL tube at a rotation speed of 10,000 xg for 30 minutes, followed by 5 centrifuges, where the material is separated into upper and lower layers. Resuspend in fresh diluent in 1.8 mL tube and perform at 20,000 xg for 5 minutes.

If the delivery particles are observed microscopically in both the top and bottom layers, the particles from these two layers are recombined after the final centrifugation step and a single sample containing all the delivery particles extracted from the product. To make. The extracted particles should be analyzed as quickly as possible, but may be stored as a deionized aqueous suspension for up to 14 days prior to analysis.

One of ordinary skill in the art recognizes that various other protocols can be constructed to extract and isolate delivery particles from the final product, and such methods are measured before and after adding the particles to the final product and extracting. Recognize the need for verification through comparison of the measured values obtained.

(2) Particle size (diameter):
The particle suspension or final product is dropped onto a glass microscope slide and allowed to dry under ambient conditions for a few minutes to remove water and obtain low density monolayer isolated particles on the dried slide. The particle concentration in the suspension is adjusted as needed to obtain a suitable particle density on the slide.
Place the slides on the sample table of the light microscope being tested with a total magnification of 100x or 400x. Capture images and calibrate to accurately measure particle diameter. Three replica samples are prepared and analyzed.

In the particle size measurement, at least 50 beneficial agent delivery particles on each slide are selected so that the measurement is unbiased in size and can produce a representative sample of the particle size distribution present.
This is obtained by testing in a randomly selected field of view, or a pre-defined grid pattern, and measuring the diameter of all delivery particles present in each field of view being tested. Delivery particles that appear to be apparently non-spherical, non-flat, leaking, or damaged are not suitable for measurement and are excluded from the selection process and their diameters are not recorded. Each diameter of suitable delivery particles to be tested is measured using a microscope and the values are recorded. The recorded particle size measurements are used to calculate the percentage of particles with a particle size within the requested dimensional range and also to calculate the average particle size.

(3) Beneficial agent leakage rate The amount of beneficial agent leakage from the delivery particles is measured by the following method:
a. ) Obtain two 1 g samples of the raw material slurry of beneficial agent delivery particles.
b. ) Add 1 g of the raw material slurry of beneficial agent delivery particles to the 99 g product matrix that will use the particles and mark the mixture as Sample 1. Immediately another 1 g of raw material particle slurry sample is used in step d below in pure form without the product matrix, which is labeled Sample 2.
c. ) The particle-containing product matrix (Sample 1) is aged in a sealed glass bottle at 35 ° C. for 2 weeks.
d. ) Use filtration to collect particles from both samples. After the aging step, the particles in sample 1 (in the product matrix) are collected. At the same time that the aging step is started in sample 1, the particles in sample 2 (pure raw material slurry) are collected.
e. ) The particles recovered in the solvent are processed to extract the beneficial agent material from the particles.
f. ) The solvent containing the beneficial agent extracted from each sample is analyzed by chromatography. The resulting beneficial agent peak regions below the curve are integrated and these regions are summed to measure the total amount of beneficial agent extracted from each sample.
g. ) The beneficial agent leakage rate is measured by calculating the difference value obtained by subtracting the total beneficial agent amount extracted from sample 1 from the total beneficial agent amount extracted from sample 2, and extracted from sample 2. The total beneficial agent rate is as expressed by the following equation:

(4) Viscosity The viscosity of the final liquid product is measured using an AR 550 rheometer / viscometer manufactured by TA instruments (New Castle, DE, USA) using parallel flat steel with a diameter of 40 mm and a gap size of 500 μm. To do. Low shear viscosity at high shear viscosity and 0.05 s ^-1 at 20s ^-1 can be obtained from a logarithmic shear rate curve of ^{0.1s -1 ~25s} -1 for 3 minutes at 21 ° C..

(5) Distribution Concentration Index The distribution concentration index in the final product is measured using the following method.
a. A 212 micrometer standard laboratory sieve (WS Typer Company, Mentor, Ohio, USA 44060) is washed with water to remove any residues, mechanically dried, and / or air dried. Let me.
b. About 20 g of the product was spread out in a row from the top of the sieve via a syringe and placed. Record weight in grams.
c. Tap the sieve lightly and let the product flow through the sieve. A light breeze or nitrogen is blown through the sample to help alleviate the trapping of air bubbles on the sieve.
d. After the final product has passed through the sieve, the number of particles remaining on the sieve is measured. Record the number of particles. Repeat the measurement 3 times. Keep in mind that aggregates are reliably measured and distinguished from bubbles. Additional air / nitrogen can be used if desired.
e. Steps 1 to 4 are repeated up to 4 times (3 times or more).
f. Divide the measured mean by weight to obtain the distribution concentration index per gram of the sample.
g. The three readings of the distribution concentration index per gram of the sample in all measurements are averaged.
